This Sunday, November 27, is your last chance to pick up an empty shoebox in support of the Christmas Shoebox Program! Rideau Park has a goal to provide around 140 wrapped shoeboxes or seasonal gift bags filled with thoughtful items to the children and youth who use the services of Banff Avenue Community House in the Ledbury community. We still have 59 boxes to fill, particularly for boys age 6 to 15. Boxes and information sheets will be available after the service in Beecroft Hall on Sunday, November 27th and all filled boxes must be returned by Sunday, December 11th. If you cannot fill a box yourself but would still like to contribute, monetary donations are also incredibly helpful and allow us to do the shopping on your behalf. Please email Laura Presley for more information.
